Dr. Shafipour is absolutely amazing. He is extremely easy to connect with when you are having a problem and is the kind of doctor you can only dream of having. I have not felt well for many years and it has never been diagnosed so I am constantly bugging him for suggestions as to whom to see next. He is extremely patient with me and does his utmost to find answers. He once said he likes to treat his patients as he would like to be treated. Well he would certainly be treated well.

My mother has now had two surgeries at UCLA Santa Monica Medical Center over the past three years,…read moreand both experiences have been outstanding. Every single staff member we have encountered--from the physicians and nurses to the technicians and support staff--has been first rate. The level of professionalism, knowledge, and attentiveness throughout the hospital is truly remarkable. The teams are incredibly thorough, compassionate, and accommodating, and it's clear that patient care is taken very seriously at every level. During stressful moments, the staff consistently took the time to explain things clearly, check in frequently, and ensure my mother was comfortable and well cared for. It genuinely feels like the "A team" works here. The coordination between departments and the overall attentiveness of the staff make a difficult experience much easier for patients and families. I can absolutely see why UCLA is considered the number one hospital in California. Our family is deeply grateful for the exceptional care my mother has received here.

Today I was treated very well and professionally by the woman at the right side of the desk. They previously were my only complaint about the office, and now I can focus on how fabulous Dr. Ruth Sorotzkin is! She reads the notes carefully from all the previous visits I've had, offers suggestions for preventative care, listens well to my input and quickly follows up with an Rx or an Imaging Request. She's fun, she's funny, and she's clever on top of being a thorough primary care doctor. I'm proud to have her as my PCP.

Five stars isn't enough for Dr. Freese and her team…read more I first met Dr. Freese when I was uninsured and looking for answers. At the time, I was experiencing symptoms that many others had attributed to anxiety, migraines, stress, or random bad luck. Dr. Freese and the other volunteer physicians listened, took my concerns seriously, and looked at the bigger picture instead of dismissing what I was experiencing. Eventually, I was diagnosed with a stroke in my right cerebellum, along with atypical seizures and ongoing neurological issues. Living with the aftermath has been challenging, but Dr. Freese has always approached my care with compassion, patience, and a genuine curiosity to find the underlying cause rather than simply treating symptoms. More recently, she has continued to help me navigate the lasting effects of my stroke, including muscle fasciculations, seizures, and chronic back pain. Even when things become stressful or confusing, she continues to advocate for me and help find solutions. What stands out most isn't just her medical knowledge. It's that she listens. She treats you like a person instead of a problem to solve, and for someone living with chronic medical conditions, that means more than I can adequately put into words. I know that whether I send a message, make an appointment, or need help during a difficult situation, Dr. Freese and her team will treat me with kindness, professionalism, and compassion. I'm incredibly grateful to have her as my physician.

Urgent Care Review Only…read more How I spent today. Sunday. Allegedly "Funday". Fun? Not so much, seriously, not so much. Three days ago my hubby complained of fatigue, left sore throat pain, left ear pain. Against my admonishment, he continued to go about his business pure pluck until it wasn't. Immediately rapid Covid tested both of us. Negative two days in a row. Hey, he breathes where I breathe. Sunday, allegedly "Funday" would it be mimosas or urgent care? The latter. He kept telling me he went to UCLA urgent care. I Yelped it. Uh huh, nothing there. Finally, he found a business card in his Rolodex for here. (Yeah, who has one of those? He does.) Since we're both in the St. Johns' Providence system, I recommended we go to urgent care here today (no forms to fill out, etc.) since at the beginning of the pandemic lock down with zero home testing available, he was sick. He went here. Was it a cold or was it Covid then? Cold. Praise be! "Call them from that Rolodex card!", I yelled to determine if care is available on Sunday. It is. M-F: 8:30AM - 7:30PM Saturday & Sunday: 10:00AM - 2:30PM (Doors promptly lock at 2:20PM). Arrived at 11:30AM. Processed and seen by noon even with a few folks ahead. Vitals (A-OK), Covid, Strep test taken, negative. GREAT doctor! Professionalism with a capital "P". Sent home with OTC med Rx and to return or contact primary physician, or EMS if symptoms worsen.

They were pretty terrible and I began second guessing why this Doctor was the place to be. We were seen at our appointment time and Dr. Hopper came out to escort us to the exam room. He thoroughly went over the questionnaire I filled out on my son's behalf. I am writing this review because I did not experience any of the tings the other Yelpers were talking about. I'm not denying these things took place but Dr. Hopper took his time with us, answered all of my questions, and shared some tips. He was courteous and professional. Ultimately, it was a positive exchange. The real frustration was trying to find the place. There are two locations with this address; one in Venice and Santa Monica. Calling for clarification proved to be a no-go. Rather than being informed of the building name, I was told that they were by a Chik-fil-A. No specifications beyond that. There are two Chik-fil-As on Lincoln. Surely, any frustration I had is understandable. All in all, I appreciate the doctor's matter-of-fact way. No complaints with regards to that here.
